My week:
Monday: Up at 4:30am. Out the door at 5:15, for a 7:00 flight, that if on time, will get me, including RAC, 45 minutes early, meetings x 6 + lunch. Return RAC, catch 6:00 flight to to city #2 . Go to RAC, go to hotel, check in behind family that has never been -----, get to room, return e-mails, sleep at midnight maybe.
Tuesday: Wake in hotel, repeat Monday
Wednesday: See Monday /Tuesday
Thursday: See Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday
Friday: See Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday except fly home at 2-4 pm
Saturday: 6am-10am Weekly reports

Monday repeat

Perhaps OP should get over Her obvious jealousy and do the right thing:

APOLOGIZE to those of us that WORK. I'm not going to hold my breath for that not forthcoming apology, but I am sending this from my fully paid for apartment in Paris, France. Because I have a job, and I work. 😀

OBTW OP-France is in Europe. Check it out! 🇺🇸🇫🇷

My travel days are like that too.
Except I'm trying to eliminate those 4:30am wake-ups.
If I can get away with leaving the afternoon of the day before, I do so.

Tomorrow I am off to Strasbourg, which is in France which is in Europe, via Amsterdam, which is in Netherlands which is ... anyway, ETD 11:00. Civilised.

Now, about that 6am return flight from SXB - I'l be on to KLM to see if I can't get the evening before flight to AMS and overnight there instead.
